Week 6 – @Dallas Cowboys

It will be the Cardinals first Monday Night Football game in three years, which was also against the Cowboys at State Farm Stadium.  That one didn’t turn out too well for them.

This will be just the second game in primetime for Murray, first one on the road.  What makes this game even tougher is that it comes at the end of three consecutive weeks on the road.

After trips to play the Carolina Panthers and New York Jets the previous two weeks, arguably the toughest one comes in this Monday night affair.  Hopefully it doesn’t faze the second-year quarterback from Oklahoma.

While this isn’t a divisional game, it will go a long way towards legitimacy in people’s eyes.  By the end of this game we should have a pretty good idea who the 2020 Cardinals will be going forward and what to expect down the stretch over the last two months of the season.
